The final pool game saw a loss to the NSW team who ended up 2nd, 62 – 54 was the final score.

After leading early, an intense game saw Hallam defend exceptionally well in the first half but unable to convert a double digit lead into more with missed layups and free throw opportunities.

The HBA showed heart and top steps in the right direction for the quarter final tomorrow.

The game saw some great rebounding from both Brandon Silivaai and Joshua Norton while Mason Lee gave the team good minutes with some smart decision making.

Details of tomorrow’s game will be on TeamApp when the opponent is confirmed online later tonight.
